The 12:57 Killer by Andy Shaw
English | 2017 | Mystery & Thriller | ePUB | 302 KB
Stafford Mills is killed in his own library with a silver candlestick. The candlestick is missing. So too cash. His smashed phone reveals the time of the attack as 12:57.
A spate of domestic burglaries in the area suggests a botched burglary, but the lack of forensics and the narrow window of opportunity in which the crime could have been committed, suggests planning. The net widens. The deceased argued with a number of people in the morning of his death. Why? Even those with an alibi, lie. Why? Where is the deceased’s estranged brother? Where is the man who made an appointment never kept? Is his ex-girlfriend as distraught as she appears? Did a potential witness really knock herself out? Will she ever remember what happened that morning? Where did the deceased take himself in the hour before his death? And what to do his enigmatic words mean?
